However, Qin Miao didn't have the face to ask Hamilton to do such a thing, nor would he request Hamilton to help him like this.
As a world champion, Qin Miao still had some dignity.
At most, he would look for an opportunity to overtake Hamilton directly, and then use Hamilton behind him to defend against Verstappen, while he himself stayed ahead of Hamilton to provide a slipstream to increase the cost and time for Verstappen to overtake Hamilton.
But this was just Qin Miao's current idea, and now Verstappen was putting quite a bit of pressure on Qin Miao. Furthermore, the opponent was using soft tires, and although their tires weren't as fresh as his, Red Bull's speed this week was always faster than Mercedes.
Lap 65, at T11 after three laps, marked the end of the second DRS zone at Zandvoort circuit.
At this time, the time gap between Verstappen and Qin Miao was only 0.5 seconds.
